Police say they are cracking down on anti-social behaviour by motorbike-riding youths in Worcester.
The Gorse Hill and Rainbow Hill neighbourhood policing team has issued two Section 59 warnings to youths riding bikes in Portefields Road, Rainbow Hill.
“We will continue to crack down on those responsible,” said a West Mercia Police spokesperson.
Section 59 of the Police Reform Act 2002 refers to vehicles being used in a manner that causes alarm, distress or annoyance.
Anyone warned about their behaviour under Section 59 is liable to have their vehicle seized by police should they continue.
